I sold the Lancer with 98,000 miles on the clock for $7,000.
and replaced it with this 2008 GTI. which cost me $23K incl, everything, $325/month at 0% for 72months.

You GTI owning FIEND! GET OFF OUR BOARDS!

Just kidding. The Lancer was coming out looking nice too. I woulda bought the Ralliart Grille off of you, too late now though.

You liking the GTI? Seems like it would feel heavy.

i don't think I'll be leaving EvoM. It's to much fun. Plus it'd be a waste not to help other guys out with all the knowledge I've gained from working on the Lancer

GTI is fantastic. It's only a couple of hundered pound heavier than the Lancer. Except it is turbocharged and has 200hp. So it's A LOT more fun to drive. It doesn't feel "heavy", but it definitely feels more solid and planted to the road.

yeh i got offered about that on trade in also. But I sold it privately to some kid and got $7K for it. That way i had a clean slate and wasn't upside down in a trade in.
I just listed it on Craigslist and got a call a couple of days later on it. They test drove it and bought it
